This is an insight. So, instead of having your own set of values and beliefs about right or wrong you expect to rely on others around you to tell you what it right or wrong. ... Is this right?

What about others? Who tell them what is right or wrong?

I hate to say, but it sounds like you describe a flock of sheep. They just do what they are told instead of making their own decisions. And the shepherd is not always a good guy, it can be really bad guy, sometimes. Or... minions?

So, if I pay to an painter to draw a swastika for me, the painter will be a Nazi? This really looks like a stretch.

It is my idea to draw it, in your example, it was yours.

It is like blame a gun for a murder instead of the person who pulled the trigger.

And even this, the fact that I asked to draw the swastika or even if I drew it, does not make me a nazi. I still need to send some Jews to the camp to be one.

If you are trying to imply that the US and China are similar or that the US is worse, you are delusional. And this is what I meant in my first posting, your priorities are wrongly set. You are trying so hard to show to everyone that the US is bad that you are ready to drive off the cliff just to make your point. Sigh... Calm down and just think about it.

What about the fact that you are funding a hostile oppressive state by doing this? And, in addition, you are putting wired surveillance device controlled by this state on the road of your country?

On the other hand... many people can do a lot of weird things for some financial benefits. Why am I surprised?

In Soviet Russia they used to call is "the highest level of social protection". It is not designed to prevent crime, it is designed to protect the society from this specific person. And not wasting money to keep the person locked. Looks very practical.

The only real concern is that it cannot be undone if there was a mistake.

It is a fallacy. The source of information is not important, the important part is if something is true or not. I can imagine that somebody can have their doubts but making predictions based on a gut feeling is not very constructive. The company is ready to put its money where the data are, so it does say something.

It is really simple, you force people to do the right thing and they will never want to do it again. This is totally a mistake done by the governments. They gained some points quickly by the society is going to be hurt in the long term. Trust is easy to lose and very difficult to gain. They should have though with their heads how to handle covid. Blame the politicians, not the people.
